Olly Murs releases his debut self-titled album on January 14th. The release follows the success of his debut single ‘Please Don’t Let Me Go’. This track was co-written by Olly, with Steve Robson and Wayne Hector.
Olly co-wrote most of the album with a host of collaborators, from Chris Difford (Squeeze) to Eg White and Trevor Horn. He says: “Epic could have gone to all these writers and gone: ‘right, Olly’s not gonna be in the session, but we want you all to write a song’. If they’d have done that, we’d have had a collection of 30, 40 tracks. That would have been rubbish. Well, they’d all have been good, but they wouldn’t have had my personality in them.”
